Skyrim's Very Special Edition For Alexa Is A Real Thing

During Bethesda's E3 press conference, Todd Howard leaned in hard on a joke about Skyrim being available on every single platform with a sketch starring Keegan-Michael Key. In the sketch, Key plays Skyrim on a number of bizarre platforms, most notably an Amazon Alexa device.

Turns out, it was more than just a comedy sketch. You can actually play Skyrim on your Alexa. To enable it for your device, head here.

As a bit of an aside, there is something I can't quite put my finger on that feels familiar about this whole gag. I just don't know what it is, though.

Kyle has been writing about video games since he convinced his high school newspaper to let him review Mega Man X7. He's been doing it professionally for nearly a decade, and once even wrote a whole book about Zelda.
